However I can see in my Xlog file that CRT 0 is indeed the right output.
My output from dmesg when I try to boot with nvidiafb is

nvidiafb 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (lewel, low) -> IRQ 16
nvidiafb: EDID found from BUS1
i2c-adapter i2c-2: unable to read EDID block.

nvidiafb: Using CRT on CRTC 0

It seems that X does not have any problem reading the EDID and chosse resolution and output.
There is also another nVidida based card integrated on the motherboard and there is no clear why to turn it of. It does not appear anywhere once the system is booted but it seem that it has reserved graphic memory (is this used by my other card to) could it be that cards dbus that complicates this?

Here, you are exporting iCal file , asking user to save file. How can we save this .ics file to particular folder in rails, say I want to save this .ics file to '/public/ics/' folder in rails. ? how can we do this ? Any Idea ? thanks, Thanks for the post.

The solution I settled on worked slightly differently. I avoid the include and used the Icalendar namespace. Perhaps a little late to the party but I ran into the same problem.
